Dr S Ayyappan, Director General of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) will be giving a public lecture at the Festival Ballroom, Crowne Plaza, Trinidad on October 17, 2011, at 10:00 am.
His talk will focus on how agricultural research and development in India has helped to reduce hunger in that country; it will be interesting to see whether Trinidad and Tobago can adopt any lessons from the Indian experience and thus help to reduce our crippling food import bill. view
